Malware warning

I tried to update the recent download for EQ2 and got a malware warning message.  This has never happened before ad I am unsure what to do.

Since you don't say what the message is or what AV you have, I have no advice to offer.

If you want some general reading, this is as true now as it was in 2009: https://blog.nirsoft.net/2009/05/17/antivirus-companies-cause-a-big-headache-to-small-developers/

The bottom line is that I can't tell you why you encounter your specific false positive.  Only your AV company can.  But AV companies make it impossible to get answers from them and get more money from fearmongering than from fixing their product.
